The death of sofware modulars

chet, amazing work!!

I don't see a module for external input, but this is easily done within reaktor anyways.

Will try this out when i have time!

Hi Chet,

What can you tell us about how the modules get connected together to create a patch? I don't see any in or out "jacks" or patch cords like on the G2.

Chet · Posted: Sat Oct 24, 2009 7:28 pm Post subject:

Dave, Reaktor has two views of an instrument: the "panel" and the "structure". The G2 shows everything on one screen; the Reaktor "structure" corresponds to the G2's patch cords.

I've attached screen shots of the panel and structure views of an instrument built with the modules. You can see it's still not as friendly as a G2. But it's as close as I've been able to come using Reaktor.

chet. i'm new to reaktor. i don't see any way to connect an external input to the system? Or am i missing something?

Chet. Ok, I guess I see what's going on.

This is not included in the upload, which makes assembling a new ens hard to do:

* Ampere Modules – A folder that includes all of the modules as separate macro files, grouped by type. Copy this folder into the default Macro path, and it will appear in Reaktor’s macro browser.

that looks pretty good chat, but putting modules like that(even without connecting them) with the G2 would cause an overload too.
but i agree, i love reaktor!!
i'm not using it life though.

buzzr, attached are the Ampere modules arranged in a directory tree.

Just put the "Ampere Modules" folder inside the "Macros" folder in under your "User Content" folder indicated in your Preferences. They'll then show up in your macro browser. This is how they're supposed to be used, but the NI user library won't let me do it.

Chet. Yes, this works perfectly. Thanks again for all your work !

I've noticed that Reaktor cannot handle feedback. It easily overloads the audio processor. The G2 does not have this problem at all.

hi,

I have found my personal software "replacement" for the G2.

http://www.xils-lab.com/

it is half modular but I have a similar working flow like with the G2.

and it is fun to create full tracks only with this synth!

like you can hear here: http://soundcloud.com/rotaphon/peacock-jackson
glad about comments.

another interesting modular combination is now MAX for LIVE.

but anyway the G2 will keep it's place in my setup!!

Max for Live public beta has just come out.

Maybe a combination of Live and Max could be the answer?
